It has been noticed that some unscrupulous elements are fraudulently inviting applications for various posts in the Intelligence Bureau. Such elements are also alluring the aspirants appearing in various written examinations conducted by IB for providing assistance during the examination and are even issuing fake appointment letters to some of the candidates. The prospective candidates/job aspirants are, therefore, cautioned not to fall prey to the designs of such unscrupulous elements who are trying to dupe the unsuspecting aspirants/candidates for their personal gain. The general public is hereby cautioned not to apply against such fraudulent advertisements. The recruitment in IB is done through the Union Public Service Commission, Staff Selection Commission and by holding dedicated All India recruitment examinations for some posts. In all recruitment processes, the applications are invited online only through the portals of UPSC, SSC and MHA. There is no provision of offline / paper applications. The advertisements inviting online applications are also published in the Employment News and on the websites of UPSC, SSC and MHA respectively. The prospective candidates, applicants and job aspirants are advised not to follow such fake and fraudulent advertisements published in other publications with names similar to Employment News or websites claiming to provide information about vacancies and competitive examinations. The applications received against fraudulent advertisements or offline applications would neither be entertained nor will this office in any way be responsible for any such fraudulent activities. This is issued in public interest
